Beautiful


You asked me to tell you why.

Why I think you are beautiful.

But I can’t tell you why.

Because I’m not sure.


…maybe it’s because I can see

clear summer days in your eyes

(running in the sunshine,

the wind playing with our hair)


…perhaps it’s because I can see

constellations in your freckles

(reflecting the sky

during long nights spent talking)


…it might be the way your cheek

fits into my hand

(and so I know that kissing you

is going to be mind-blowing)


…possibly its your soft playable hair

(and I can see myself

playing with it as we share

our favorite movies)


…it could be your smile

(and the way it makes me

forgettobreathe)


But really?


I just think it’s because

You

are

you.
